OVERVIEW
CORE
RIGID
KORLOK
Korlok features a beautiful collection of wood
look planks and stone effect tiles. The product is
quickly fitted together using a simple drop and
lock mechanism. This range has a solid 'rigid core'
construction, which makes it less pliable and
suitable for laying over uneven surfaces. If you're
worried about noise, the acoustic backing reduces
sound transfer to rooms below by 21dB, and there
is no need for a separate underlay. Washed Grey Ash RKP8104

INSTALLATION TIME...
RIGID CORE
Rigid core is 30% quicker to install than other click
floors. The ability to fit over most existing hard floors,
or uneven subfloors means there is minimal subfloor
preparation. The simple score and snap technique
means there is no need for specialist tools.
LOOSE LAY
Loose lay is fitted by placing planks or tiles tight
to each other and to the perimeter of the room,
often without the need for any adhesive*. There
is no need to remove your skirting boards when
fitting Palio LooseLay, so it really does save on the
installation time.

PLANNING
YOUR SPACE
Draw your room layout here to calculate
the number of boxes of flooring you will
need for your installation.
You can also use this area to note any scotia
or skirting boards you require.
Why not experiment with laying
patterns too?
48 | Palio Express by KarndeanHOW DO I CALCULATE THE
AMOUNT OF FLOOR I NEED?
Rectangular rooms can be calculated easily by
multiplying the length by the width (see example 1).
If your room isn’t a standard shape, try splitting the
room into separate rectangles. Calculate the area
of each rectangle, then simply add these values
together to reach your total room dimensions
(see example 2).
Example 1:
A x B = total area
B
A
Example 2:
(A x B) + (C x D) = total area
